The job application letter's sole purpose is to get the recipient to read your CV. It should be clear, concise and straight to the point. Here you are simply telling the employer that you are worth having a look at.
The application letter should be brief, no more than one page in length. It should be easy to read and flow through. It should include only the absolute necessary information. Like most other things, there is a formula that works extremely well for preparing job application letters. Following we discuss each paragraph and give you some guidelines.
Addressing job application letters:
The style you choose is not important, there are many different styles of job applications and professional letters, this comes down to personal preference. However somewhere on the top, whether it is on the right or left hand sides, there should be your address and the date. Following this, on the left hand side you should address it. Ensure you include the name of the person, their title, company name, address and any position reference number. This is probably obvious, but ensure that you spell their name correctly, there is nothing worse than receiving a letter incorrectly addressed or misspelled. It gives a poor first impression.
The Introductory Paragraph:
The first paragraph should simply state why you are writing to them. If it is an advertised position, mention the position title and where it was advertised. If you are "cold calling" a company then you should specify that you are applying for any current or future employment opportunities.
An easy way to start this paragraph is with the following statement: " Please find enclosed my CV, which I am forwarding to you as an application for the position of ..."
The main body of job application letters:
The main body of an application letter should be two to three paragraphs at the most, if it is too long it may be skipped. When I reader begins to skip text, it is hard to get them to re-focus. Here is where you tell them what you have to offer and why they should read your CV. This is a good time to read the job advertisement again. In one paragraph (two at the most) you need to summarise your experience and skills, at the same time, you need to respond to the position requirements as per the advertisement.
Analyse your career and summarise it in a few sentences, highlight what you specialise in, or how many years in the industry you might have, or even the level that you have reached. This paragraph should direct the reader to your CV and should sell you on some unique points that you might have.
A good way to start this paragraph is with a statement like this: "You will see from my enclosed CV..." then go ahead and tell them something about your career which will immediately get their interest.
The next part of the body of the letter should be a brief description of your personal skills. Again read the advertisement and respond to their needs. If they are asking for someone with good co-ordination skills, then ensure you mention something to that effect. If it is communication or perhaps leadership skills they value, then tell them that you have these. Use adjectives like "demonstrated ability", "well developed", "strong".
Job Application Letters Closing Paragraph:
The closing paragraph should ask for some action from the recipient. This is where you ask for an interview. It should also state where and how they can reach you, and it should thank the recipient for giving you the opportunity to apply. You can include things like "should you require further information....." .
Finish the letter by adding a closing remark, either "yours sincerely", "yours faithfully' or whatever you feel comfortable with and obeying general letter writing etiquette. Leave a few spaces for your signature and then place your full name.
Before you mail the application letter, read it over again, making sure that it is perfect. Special attention should be placed to ensure the job application letter:
Is not too long.
Has no grammar or spelling errors.
Answers the job requirements.
Flows and is easy to read.
Is easy to load into recruitment software.
You might have to type and edit the letter many times before you are happy with it, but just remember that the job application letter is just as important as the CV itself. The letter should make the recipient to read the resume, in turn the resume should raise enough interest for them to want to interview you. The Interview is where you will demonstrate your skills and abilities

Dear Ms Wilson
I was very interested to read your advertisement in the Daily Mail of 8 June 2002 for a
Personal Assistant with the Royal Mail, as I am confident that I have the experience and
skills being sought.
As you will see from my enclosed CV, I have extensive experience of operating as a
Senior Secretary/PA, serving high levels of management in varied customer orientated
industries. In my most recent post as Secretary/PA to the Chairman of the ABC
Company I have led a team of six staff in providing support to the Board of Directors. It
was my responsibility to recruit, train and motivate this group into a tight knit and efficient
team. Their motivation was a key issue in the building up of this successful operation.
As a result, I was also able to reorganise team functions so that a retiring member did
not need to be replaced.
This personal assistant role would broaden my career and enable me to tackle new
challenges in a revitalised organisation such as Royal Mail. I feel that my experience,
youthful approach and managerial skills, together with my secretarial abilities, could be
used to excellent effect.
I would be delighted to attend an interview and would be happy to discuss how we may
benefit each other. My previous salary with ABC Company was £15,000 with additional
benefits. My telephone number, whilst being on my CV, is (0181) 123 4567; an
answerphone is in operation if I am not able to answer the call. I look forward to hearing
from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Norma Hooper (Mrs).
Why this letter is more likely to achieve an interview?
1. Applicant’s address includes postcode and she has taken the trouble to find out
the sex of the consultant.
2. She is saying ‘I have what you need – I can do this job’.
3. There is no wishing to apply – she is direct.
4. It is immediately clear which position is being applied for.
5. The applicant has not fallen into the trap of expecting the accompanying CV to do
all the work. It is understood that the application letter complements the CV and
is highlighting those aspects of her career, which are relevant to the job.
6. The details of a specific role have been quoted with evidence. Potential
employers like to see the benefits to the company e.g. reduction in headcount.
7. Although not mentioned in the advertisement, she had read between the lines
and picked out factors that will be of interest to Royal Mail, e.g. Experience of
‘customer orientated industries’.
8. The applicant understands that the purpose of the letter is to achieve an
interview. Therefore, the letter is kept brief and does not tell the whole story. It
provides a taster.
9. The advertisement has been studied, she concentrates on her managerial skills
as stressed in the advertisement, and given an example, with passing reference
to secretarial abilities.
10. Achievements and responsibilities are quantified where possible.
11. The emphasis throughout is mainly on the benefit to the employer rather than to
the applicant (only one sentence refers).
12. Optimistic positive words are used; ‘confident’, ‘successful’, etc.
13. There is strong evidence of ‘blowing your own trumpet’.
14. The applicant asks for an interview and gives a number.
15. The ending of the letter is very positive in that it indicates the next stage of the
process and her keenness to pursue her application.
16. It is recognised that the applicant is the product, the employer is the customer
and the letter and CV are the sales literature. The latter is all that the customer
has to go on to decide whether the product might be worth seeing.
Selling Points:
Remember, in your letters and during your discussions, employers like to hear from
people who can:
Cut costs Preserve competitive advantage
Make it look better Improve the packaging
Get it done quickly Avoid potential problems
Improve appearance Organise it
Expedite the workflow Use old things in a new way
Increase sales/profit/turnover Cut down time
Provide more information Provide a tax advantage
Cut staff costs Reduce inventories
Turn around a bad situation Develop staff performance
Improve teamwork and relationships
